Samsung smart tv browser in fullscreen mode

Question

Can I start browser in fullscreen mode on Samsung Smart TV (LED TV series 5) ?

Solution 1

Here is how to do it on the TV Samsung UE32H4510 :

• In the browser click in the upper right corner on the gear icon
• Go to "Browser Settings"
• Go to the "General" sub-menu
• And then you have an option called "Hide menu" ("Masquer menu" in French) that you need to enable
• Finally you need to restart the browser application to have the menu hidden

Solution 2

No you can't. I have requested this feature from Samsung, but they have not answered me. Top navigation will be always visible in Samsung TV's.

Solution 3

New information for this old question.

On a 65" Samsung TV purchase in the U.S.A.

1. Open the WebBrowser
2. Navigate to the streaming event you want to watch.

Only takes 20 seconds to go full screen.

Using the remote's simple navigation ring and center Ok button:

3. Click the 'Hamburger' button upper right

4. Click Settings

5. Under the top option 'Hide Tabs and Menu Bar' click "Use"

6. Click on the tab just left (your streaming event)

7. Click on the 'Refresh' icon (the over under circle icon just left of the bookmark star)

8. Wait 15 seconds and BOOYA! Joy! Your stream is full screen. Get the popcorn, a drink and enjoy.

Later) Force the browser's Tabs and Menu to re-appear buy using the remote in the same way to simply navigate to the top of the screen.

Thanks, so the solution for my problem was to buy third party device (like some android device), with a brower that can do that, and connect it to TV.
